  • Existing wood single pole structures will be replaced with new steel single pole structures
  • New structures will be approximately 20 feet taller on average than existing structures
  • Steel poles are utilized for reliability and resiliency with the harsh weather conditions our communities can face
  • Existing structures that utilize guy-wires for support will be replaced with self-supporting structures
